G
Just when I thought I hadn't seen a thing,
you went and promised me we'd float
D7
Promenade through all the little corners
of the world that no one knows
G
Climb Mount Everest, build ourselves a terrace,
overlooking Isle of White
D7
But suddenly the skies are darkening, the
clouds are rolling in I'm
G
realizing all the while
[Chorus]
C
I've been strung along and
G
carried by a lead balloon
D7
Oh but how could I have
G
ever left the ground
C
When the reason I've been struggling
G
pulling my weight is you
D7 G
You're my love, you're my lead balloon
[Verse 2]
G
Just when I thought I'm figuring it out,
D7
I've sorted through the doubt you caused
I start dreaming of rooms without a ceiling,
G
buildings towering applause
If only we could drift as though we were
D7
filled with helium, light as feathers
We would never come undone,
G
cause darlin we'd be tethered
[Chorus]
C
I've been strung along and carried by a
G
lead balloon
D7 G
Oh but how could I have ever left the ground
C
When the reason I've been struggling
G
pulling my weight is you
D7
You're my love, you're my lead
G
balloon
